Need photo.

Today is a Glycine Combat Sub Automatic on a James Bond black and gray two stripe NATO strap. Just got it a couple of weeks ago and am digging the large (for me) 42 MM coupled with it being very thin. I like the way it sits on my arm.

Took this when I first saw the thread but I was ashamed out how dirty it was and planned to retake the picture at lunch but got busy and didn't have a chance.

Is this a 0170? I had my La Bomba 087 on yesterday. At first, that is what I thought it was because the dial looked kinda blue at that angle on my monitor.

It isn't remotely a beater it just happened to be a little dirty. My desk job isn't hard on watches.

I'm sure if we had a listing of your monthly spending we could find some stupid shite that you waste money on

Stupid shite is in the eye of the beholder or something like that.

Who knew I would find such an educated/informed WIS on TD?

I can tell you know your stuff from the comments on these watch threads over the years. You have great taste too. I love the AP Ceramic Diver w/ orange hand/accents. I have wanted a regular ole steel AP diver for sometime now. Pre-pandemic $14k...now ughhh. Waited too long. Maybe one day.

It is an 87G Blue Bomba. Kind of looks like a PAM 106 (love that anthracite dial)-my best friend has one. 170 is like 106 but with some polished parts vs. brushed). 1000m gives it away. It is on a steel/Ti OEM bracelet fitted with some aftermarket Ti end links (got off Paneristi years ago) that were made for the PAM 87 or PAM 64. Very, very impressed and happy with the links as they are higher quality/tighter tolerances against the case and lugs than OEM. I think the guy might still make them.

Anyway...I loved Panerai in the 2000s and own two, but not much they put out these days moves the needle for me. They even screwed up the 00, which was the best looking one they made.

It isn't in rotation, it stays in a safety deposit box and I get it out and wear it 3-4 times a year. Usually when I have some other reason to be in my box.

I used to be a Paneristi but haven't gotten anything new in probably 10 years, they still make up a significant part of my collection but I have forgotten 90% of what I knew about them. For years I fought the idea "they only make two watches" because every new detail made me want another one. Ohhh that one has a pig on the dial, gotta have that, a blue dial Submersible well I have to have one of those. The only thing I really wanted back then that I didn't get was a Bronzo but a 44mm Submersible is the largest I can go but I do have a couple of 47mm Radiomirs that I "shouldn't" wear but they are less bulky. The 532 Paneristi Forever was maybe the last one I bought, DLC with a pig on a sandwich dial just too much to say no to even though it is too big.
